Prepared by Radif Partners · Method · acts and ordinances checked on 29 October 2026
Düsseldorf published its 2026 shopping Sundays in the official gazette on 10 January, as ordinances of the public order office. The centre, covering Stadtmitte, Altstadt and Carlstadt, opens twice: on 10 May for the Interpack packaging fair and on 29 November, the first Advent Sunday, for the Christmas market. The other dates belong to districts: Eller for its Easter market and the Gumbertstraße festival, Benrath for its May market, Oberkassel for the Luegallee festival, Kaiserswerth for its emperor and potato festival, Pempelfort for the Nordstraße festival. On the second Advent Sunday, 6 December, Benrath, Eller, Kaiserswerth, Oberkassel and Pempelfort open together for their Christmas markets. Every date runs from 1 pm to 6 pm, 9 entries in all. No ordinance for 2027 had appeared by 29 October 2026; the 2026 dates were published in January.
Trade fair, markets and Christmas
Düsseldorf is one of the few cities to tie a Sunday to a trade fair: Interpack draws visitors from around the world, and the city considers that an occasion able to carry a centre opening. The other dates follow the usual North Rhine-Westphalian pattern: a district festival, a defined area, five hours in the afternoon.
Because the state act allows a town with district releases two Advent Sundays, Düsseldorf splits them: the first Advent Sunday for the centre, the second for the five districts. For the exact streets, see the public order office’s site plan, linked as the source in the table. More on the neighbour: Cologne.
